Just bought a jdm 1987 16v. 98000km. Amg bits!!

I am super excited since I bought this 190. It is my 3rd 190 so far but first 16v.
I first tought it was in really bad shape mechanically but it is not that bad after a couple quick fixes.
I plan to restore it completely with complete respray.
Here are some pics:

Car is so dirty it looks like it never got washed in 10 years.
I am in Canada and the car was imported here 10 years ago.
NO rust anywhere. Not even the coil springs.
These cars were made from undestructinium.

Hey you told me you were looking for door cards. I just realized you have the euro cloth interior.... i have 2 rear ones in decent shape from one of the cars i parted out. the front ones were total junk tho. Had heavy damage. Hit me up this week-end and i'll send you some pictures and i can bring them along next week.

Nice car, how did you get it? I worked at Costco a few years ago and saw this old lady driving around in a euro 16v. I got to talk to her one time and she was the original owner in Germany. She had the car shipped here to California I couldn't talk her into selling it to me.

Aahh. Too bad!
This one was for sale in the local classifieds right next to my work.
I was away for a week when it was listed, and got real lucky it was still there at my return. The owner did not even know it originally came from japan. We initially though it had major engine and transmission problems but after buying it I realized it was only minor things...
I really think it was an awesome find for the price.
